Clinicians should anticipate VT/VF especially during AMI PCI; extends prior estimates via systematic synthesis of incidence data.
What is the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias during cardiac catheterization procedures?
Cardiac arrhythmias are common and potentially serious complications during cardiac catheterization, with the highest risk of ventricular arrhythmias occurring during PCI for acute myocardial infarction.
Shaik et al. (2020) studied this question.
